Braided thread, size 4

[esantoro]

Dave from Artisan, along with a wonderful new presser foot and much needed screws, has sent me a sample spool of size 4 flat braided thread. It looks pretty interesting. I'll try to take macro pics later, but just thought I'd ask if anyone has ever tried this thread and if it can be used in the heavy stitchers? This size 4 seems to be equivalent to 277 or 346.

Hmmmmm,

Seems like he should have sent that to someone with a needle and awl machine.

Talked to Steve today. It's a new item they have and they're having people test it out. I don't have enough experiments to run, so they gave me this thread to try out. I'll post pics later.
